    Objective To explore the effect of  indocyanine green(ICG)for sentinel lymph node mapping in laparoscopic fertility-sparing surgery for early cervical cancer. Methods Clinical data of 24 patients which underwent laparoscopic radical trachelectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with ICG mapping. The detection rates,lymph node distribution and quantity were analyzed. Results Twenty-four  patients were included. Intraoperative ICG mapping detected at least one SLN in 24 patients (24/24),while bilateral mapping was achieved in 93.8% of cases(22/24). There was no difference in detection rates between different injection method and patients with and without prior conization(P>0.05).A total of 210 SLN were resected in 24 patients,with an average of 8.75 SLN per patient(3-19 SLN). 139 SLN are located in the iliac vessels,accounting for 66.19% (139/210). Conclusions Sentinel lymph node mapping can be effectively applied to laparoscopic fertility-sparing surgery for early cervical cancers with strict indication and operational procedures.

    PANG Ting, LIU Shun, QIU Xiaoqiang, LI Shu, QIN Xiaoling, LI Kehua, LIU Meiliang, WU Liuyu, ZENG Xiaoyun
    2019, 11 (3):  227-232.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1674-5671.2019.03.09
    Abstract ( 362 )   PDF (5122KB) ( 442 )   Save
    Objective To investigate the promoter methylation and expression level of TBX15 gene in hepatoma cells,and explore the effect of promoter methylation on its mRNA expression and cell tumor behavior. Methods Bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP) and quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR) were used to detect the promoter methylation and expression level of TBX15 in three hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines(HepG2,MHCC97H,SNU449). Then the blank plasmid,empty plasmid pc3.1 and TBX15 overexpression plasmid were transfected into the hepatoma cell SNU449,and the proliferation and apoptosis in three different groups of hepatoma cells were detected by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry. Results Among the three hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines,the TBX15 gene had the highest promoter methylation rate(89.5%) and the lowest mRNA expression level in SNU449 hepatoma cell. The overexpression plasmid group proliferating for hepatoma cells after culturing 48 h was higher than that of the empty plasmid group. The difference was statistically significant(0.549±0.080 vs 0.457±0.506,P=0.015). The results of total apoptosis counting showed that the overexpression plasmid group had a higher effect on the apoptosis ability of hepatoma cells than the blank plasmid group. The difference was statistically significant[(5.12±1.42)% vs (2.16±0.41)%,P=0.014]. Conclusions Abnormal methylation in the promoter region may be the main reason for the inactivation of TBX15 gene,and it was closely related to the malignant biological behavior of hepatocellular carcinoma. It was a predictor for the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.

    2019, 11 (3):  233-238.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1674-5671.2019.03.10
    Abstract ( 304 )   PDF (47303KB) ( 67 )   Save
    Objective To investigate the effects of extracellular signal regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) on the biological functions of gastric cancer SGC-7901 and BGC-823 cells. Methods Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression levels of ERK5 mRNA in human gastric cancer cell lines and human gastric mucosal epithelial cell lines.The expression of ERK5 in gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 and BGC-823 was silenced by short hairpin RNA(shRNA) interference technology.After the ERK5 gene was knocked down in gastric cancer cells,cell growth and proliferation were detected by CCK-8 assay. Cell colony formation ability was detected by plate cloning assay,cell invasion and migration ability were detected by Transwell assay,cell apoptosis and cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry. Results Compared with GES-1 in gastric mucosal epithelial cells,ERK5 mRNA was highly expressed in gastric cancer cells SGC-7901,BGC-823,AGS,and HGC-27,the difference folds were 2.696±0.501,1.865±0.185,1.793±0.137 and 1.530±0.093,respectively(P<0.05). ERK5-shRNA effectively silenced the expression of ERK5 in gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 and BGC-823,and the silencing efficiency were(74.4±1.5)% and (69.1±3.9)%,respectively (P<0.05). Silencing ERK5 expression could effectively inhibit the proliferation,colony formation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells(P<0.05).Silencing ERK5 expression increased gastric cancer cell apoptosis rate(P<0.05),and induced cell cycle was arrested at the G0/G1 phase. Conclusions Silencing ERK5 significantly inhibit the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cell lines SGC-7901 and BGC-823.ERK5 may become a potential target for the treatment of gastric cancer in the future.

    2019, 11 (3):  239-244.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1674-5671.2019.03.11
    Abstract ( 359 )   PDF (1642KB) ( 502 )   Save
    Objective  To explore the prognostic value of platelet to lymphocyte ratio(PLR) for follicular lymphoma(FL). Methods The clinical data of 74 patients with FL admitted to Sichuan Cancer Hospital from February 2006 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The cutoff value of PLR was calculated by X-Tile 3.6.1 software,and the patients were divided into low PLR group(<186.8,n=59)and high PLR group(≥186.8,n=15) according to the cutoff value. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between PLR and prognosis. Results The median follow-up of this study was 42 months(range:6-144 months),4 years of progression free survival (PFS) was 42.0%,and overall survival (OS) was 54.7%. The 4-year PFS of the low PLR group was longer than that of the PLR group(51.3% vs 6.7%,χ2=25.320,P<0.001),and the 4-year OS was also longer than the PLR group(65.7%  vs 8.3%, χ2=29.414,P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that PLR>186.8 was an independent risk factor for PFS(HR=3.949,95%CI:1.856-8.404,P<0.001) and OS(HR=4.795,95%CI:2.259-10.178,P<0.001)for FL patients. Further analysis demonstrated that in low risk FL patients group,median PFS and median OS of the low PLR group were significantly longer than those of the high PLR group(PFS:75.5 months vs 19.0 months,χ2=14.798,P<0.001;OS:85.5 months vs 28.0 months,χ2=13.271,P<0.001). Similarly,in intermediate-high risk FL patients group,median PFS and median OS of the low PLR group were also significantly longer than those of the high PLR group (PFS:32.0 months vs 12.0 months,χ2=10.766,P=0.001;OS:51.0 months vs 19.0 months,χ2=13.404,P<0.001). Conclusion PLR is associated with prognosis in patients with FL and can be used as an indicator of prognosis.

    2019, 11 (3):  257-261.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1674-5671.2019.03.14
    Abstract ( 402 )   PDF (632KB) ( 380 )   Save
    Objective To explore the differences in magnetic resonance(MR) manifestation of different molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Methods MR images from 69 breast cancer patients were retrospectively analyzed. The morphological characteristics,early enhancement rate,time-signal intensity cure(TIC) and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) value of the breast cancer lesions with each molecular subtype were identified and assessed jointly. Results Among 69 cases of breast cancer,62 cases(76 lesions) showed mass-like enhancement lesions,including 8 cases of Luminal A breast cancer(11 lesions),35 cases of Luminal B breast cancer(44 lesions),9 cases of HER-2 overexpression breast cancer(11 lesions) and 10 cases of triple-negative breast cancer(10 lesions). In mass-like enhancement lesions,the morphological difference of different molecular subtypes of breast cancer cells was statistically significant(χ2=17.006,P=0.002),and the proportion morphology of round of triple-negative breast cancer was significantly larger than the other three groups(40.00% vs 10.61%,χ2=6.390,P=0.033). The marginal difference of different molecular subtypes of breast cancer cells was also statistically significant (χ2=25.502,P=0.001),and the proportion of circumscribed margin of triple-negative breast cancer was significantly greater than the other three groups(60.00% vs 10.61%,χ2=14.942,P=0.001). There were no significant differences in internal enhancement characteristics,early enhancement rate,TIC type and ADC value among different molecular subtypes of breast cancer(P>0.05). Conclusions Different molecular subtypes of breast cancer have some differences in MR manifestation,which may help distinguish between triple-negative breast cancer and non-triple-negative breast cancer. However,there is not currently possible to directly predict the molecular subtype of breast cancer based on MR manifestation.
